RAILROAD CATECHISM.
THAT PORTION OF 1T RELATING TO
LONG AND SHORT HAULS.

CFrom the Washington Critic.l
Teacher-The long and short
haul class in railroad mystificatlon
will stand up.
Question-What is long haul
Answer-The whole distance
over trunk line.
O.-Wbat is a short haulE
A.-From one terminus to a way |
station.
(Which haul Is the most ex-
pensive to the shipper
A.-The short haul.
Q.-Why?
A.-Because the railroad com
pany is afraid of losing the long
haul customer by competition OF
another trunk line. But the short
haul he knows is his, because the
customer finds no other railroad to
deal with between his way station
and the terminus.
O.-What is the additional
charge to the short haul customer!
A.-The company charges him
the through freight over the whole
line, and then adds the way freight
back from the terminus to his
station.
O.-Do you mean by the mile !
A.-No. l meau the aggregate
charge.
| o. illustrate this.
A.-The freight from Chicago to
San Francisco Is $500 for car
load of certain kinds of merchan
disc. But if the same carload is
going only as far as Reno, in the
, State of Nevada, the charge Is
, $500. This is computed by charg-
r ing, first, the full through freight
? (s3OO), and then adding the way
freight $4,000 from San Francisco
{ back to Reno.
Q.-Do they actually carry the
= freight through and back agalu II
! order to make this chargei
A.-No. They did so for Ions
time. Merchants saw their freigh
. carried through the depots at thel
= stations and taken hundreds o
miles over the Sierras and bac'
again, and suffered great inconye
y nience from delay. Finally, tn
- railroad company consented to lie
: the freight stop at its destination
= upon payment of the full amoun
" for the distance through aud bac
